Discussion: Trump Manages To Give Some House GOPers More Heartburn In Hill Meeting

If Mark Meadows says Trump’s a conservative … well that means that the House Freedumb Caucus is based on race/class identity politics and not any ideological grounds.

“He was just listing out numbers,” Farenthold said. “I think he was confusing Articles and Amendments. Remember, this guy doesn’t speak from a TelePrompter. He speaks from the heart.”

Remember when then-Senator Obama said he’d been to 57 states, instead of the 47 he’d been to? Yeah, but that was proof that he was an ignorant clown. Trump doesn’t know how many articles are in the Constitution, but that’s just “speaking from the heart.”

To be clear, I think both things were just people talking off the tops of their heads, and no big deal; but the way Republicans excuse anything Trump does or says while shitting on the president for the smallest misspeakings is just pitiful.

The Republican member said that Trump’s lack of knowledge about how many articles exist, gave him “a little pause.” (The Constitution has seven articles and 27 amendments.)

LOL, well, he knows there are 2 corinthians…

In the end it doesn’t matter. The people voting for Trump are going to do so regardless of anything that comes out of his mouth, clearly. The people who might have voted for Trump are already scared off by other stuff, this is inconsequential in the long run. Not knowing how many Articles are in the Constitution is the least of his faults.

Dunning Krueger. If you know you don’t know something, then stick to what you do know. Unless you’re a White Guy.

There’s never been such a weak, sad and massive display of weasel words in the defense of someone completely indefensible.

I disagree. Obama wasn’t “talking off the top of his head,” as if he hadn’t given the matter sufficient thought. He simply misspoke. He obviously knows very well how many states there are. By contrast do you really think that Trump knows how many articles there are in the Constitution? Do you think he has ever even glanced at the Constitution? I would say his ignorance here is a very big deal.

Trump is like the student who bullshits in class, turns in a plagiarized paper, doesn’t study for the final exam, and pulls out a C minus in the class.

Sounds like Conman Tramp will really defend the Constitution including what’s not in it. Amazing that Conman Tramp knows so much about the Constitution without a teleprompter. What a gifted conservative!

“There wasn’t a lot of substance, and I think at some point we got to get to substance in the most significant political position in the world,” the member said.

Rep. Mark Meadows (R-NC) “I got an interview I got to run to.”

These people cannot even speak proper English.
Disgraceful.

That was the same excuse used for Rich Santorum, when he said the Dutch kill their senior citizens, in the 2012 campaign… “If you believe it, it is not a lie”

I believe Article 12 of the Constitution says that a crooked self centered business man can never be POTUS.
